How many qts of automatic tranny fluid take in a 2 speed powerglide?

How many qts of automatic tranny fluid does it take in a 2 speed power glide take, for a routine change?
1969 El Camino.

(Not counting the torque converter)

4 qts for a dry powerglide tranny, stock pan. This is not counting torque converter.

13" converter holds 5 qt.
12" converter holds 4 qt
11" converter holds 3.5 qt.
10" converter holds 3 qt.

So anywhere from 7 to 9 qt for tranny and converter

im thinking of doing the el camino in spain/france?

Posted on December 19th, 2011 by admin

is 50 miles a day a reasonable expectation. also what will i need in my shoulder pack

50 miles a day on a road maybe OK but on a path that’s disintegrating you’ll be lucky to do 10miles

I’ve seen photos of this walk and it looks a bit dangerous, still good luck

English lyrics of the song "Que tengo que hacer" by Daddy Yankee ft. Omega?

Posted on December 16th, 2011 by admin

Here are the original lyrics that I found

http://www.musica.com/letras.asp?letra=1782277

I’ve corrected them a bit, but as I don’t speak Spanish, I’m sure there are more mistakes, and I might have also made some mistakes while "correcting" them (that’s why I’ve included the original link) and this is why I would like only a native Spanish speaker to translate it because I trust only them to understand these errors and the spirit of the language to translate accurately this great song. Please respect this, because this is my favorite song ever, and I will greatly appreciate the effort. I already understand some main parts and words (I included them too, because I didn’t want to go through the trouble of deselecting those parts, and also to check if I’m wrong), but there are also many that I couldn’t find a translation for and grammatical structures that I do not yet understand, so whoever does it, it’ll really be a great favor. And sorry for my english, if I’ve made mistakes (I’m not from an english speaking country)
So here are the lyrics:

Remix
Omega
El fuerte
The big boss
El jefe
Omega
Daddy con el más criminal

(Daddy Yankee)
Que tengo que hacer pa’ que vuelvas conmigo
Vamos a dejar el pasado atrás
Para mí la vida no tiene sentido
Si te vaaas

(Omega)
Que tengo que hacer pa que vuelvas conmigo
Vamos a dejar el pasado atrás
Para mí la vida no tiene sentido
Si te vaaas

Omega

(Daddy Yankee)

DY

Las nubes no son de algodón
Y el mar no se puede tapar
Pero la esperanza mia es color gris
El ruiseñor no canta pa’ mi
Dame luz para vivir

Hay muchos gavilán dando te la vuelta
Las pollitas sola piensa que anda suelta
Le tiran maíz (ya)
pero soy el único que pica hay

Si me quieres porque te vas
Eta guerra pido la paz
Pierdo asta la fuerza con la esperanza de que vuelvas
Voy a poner todo en su lugar
Porque en la calle no hay na que buscar
En mi calendario ya tengo marcao
Los días k van sin tenerte a mi lao ao (en donde será k tu ta)

El fuerte
El jefe
Omega

(Omega)
Ya-ya
Los matos

Las nubes no son de algodón
Y el mar no se puede tapar
Las nubes no son de algodón
Y el mar no se puede tapar
Pa mi la vida no tiene sentido
Si en camino tu no esta conmigo
Si no te tengo a mi lao yo vivo deceperao
Y obsesionao contigo
Un sueño feo yo me hice ayer
En el que tu no estabas linda mujer
Y ahora estoy solo llorando aqui solo
Y ahora estoy solo y no encuentro el modo
Y ahora estoy solo llorando estoy solo
Te sigo buscando en donde
Será que tu ta (en donde será que tu ta)

DJ Ricky
Lo hicimos de nuevo

(Omega y Daddy Yankee)
Que tengo que hacer pa que vuelvas conmigo
Vamos a dejar el pasado atrás
Para mí la vida no tiene sentido
Si te vaaas

(Daddy Yankee)
El máximo líder
Con el fuerte
Daddy Yankee Mundial
Mundial
Remix
The remix

(Omega)
Las nubes no son de algodón
Y el mar no se puede tapar (el fuerte)
Las nubes no son de algodón (DY)
Y el mar no se puede tapar

Thank you!!!

Do you know that there are sites that translate languages, it would help if you google them first.

What’s the ideal size for a walking stick?

Posted on December 9th, 2011 by admin

I’m going to do more walks trough out nature and maybe, one of this days, walk the Camino de Santiago de Compostela, I want a walking Stick, like the one in the picture bellow, made by myself, what’s the ideal size for that? (I’m 5.2 ft)

http://southcoaststyle.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/nature_walk.jpg

There’s no way for us to give you a specific height because we aren’t the ones that will be using the thing. It’s a personal choice that only you can make, and that may take some experimentation. Cut a couple of sticks or closet rods to different lengths and see which one is most comfortable for you. Some people like to have their hands higher than others so would want a longer stick. If you live in a hilly area or one with a lot of dense forest, you might want a stick that is longer than one if you were planning on mostly sticking to flat terrain.

You didn’t say how old you are, but if you’re not done growing, you probably don’t want to spend a lot of time, money, and effort to make a walking stick that you will quickly outgrow. A lot of hikers have two walking sticks, often made from lightweight aluminum ski poles, which they use to help them with balance over rough terrain, though, personally, I prefer to keep my hands free and don’t like to use any sort of a walking stick because it’s just one more thing to carry and I don’t expect to need to defend myself.

I think you just need to experiment a little and find what height works best for you. The lighter the material the better as well because even one that doesn’t weigh much will get heavy after a while.
